Natural catastrophes are a spectacular instance of the ambivalence of nature. A normative model of social order, nature is also a potential threat to it. Yet even as natural disasters wreak their havoc, they are often seen as the workings of divine powers and thus an affirmation of cosmic order. The book explores modes of representing and interpreting catastrophes from Antiquity to the modern age.
